00:00 Dakota Johnson making a rare comment
00:03 about her relationship with Chris Martin.
00:05 - It was really special.
00:07 - The actress speaking out
00:08 at the Hope for Depression Research Foundation's
00:11 annual luncheon, where the org honored her
00:13 for raising awareness about mental health.
00:16 And according to reports, Dakota opened up
00:19 about her own struggles during her speech,
00:22 touching on when the Coldplay frontman
00:24 supported her in dark times, sharing, quote,
00:28 "A few weeks ago, I was having a low day
00:30 "and my partner said to me, 'Are you really struggling?'
00:33 "And I said, 'No.'
00:35 "And he said, 'Baby, you are wearing a Cats T-shirt,'
00:38 "as in Cats the music.
00:40 "So it turns out I really was struggling."
00:43 ♪ Baby ♪
00:47 ♪ All alone in the moonlight ♪
00:51 But that moment lifted me up and pulled me out of it.
00:56 I mostly just like try to stay true to myself.
01:00 - The famously private couple who started dating in 2017
01:04 has gone slightly more public
01:06 with their romance in recent years.
01:08 Like in 2022, when Dakota had a virtual Q&A
01:12 for the Sundance Film Festival and Chris popped in.
01:16 - We also have her own screen, producer, star,
01:20 Dakota Johnson.
01:21 (laughing)
01:23 - Hello, welcome, welcome.
01:25 Peace.
01:26 - That's the musician jumping in
01:29 to help get Dakota's equipment all squared away.
01:33 - This is all you can look at.
01:35 - Then there's this sweet moment at a Coldplay concert.
01:39 - This is about my universe.
01:40 (crowd cheering)
01:42 And she's here.
01:44 ♪ You're the one who my universe has now ♪
01:49 ♪ This one's for you first ♪
01:53 ♪ You're the one who my universe has now ♪
01:58 ♪ This one's for you ♪
02:00 - Yeah, the musician dedicated his song with BTS,
02:03 My Universe, to his lady love.
02:06 ♪ Never ending forever ♪
02:08 ♪ Baby, you're the one who my universe has now ♪
02:13 ♪ Just wanna put you first ♪
02:18 - How do you top this feeling?
02:19 - I don't think it's possible.
02:20 - Dakota's also inspired Chris
02:22 when it comes to his music and inclusivity.
02:25 Last year, The Rocker shared
02:27 the actress introduced him to subpacks,
02:30 which are wearable bass-delivering vests
02:32 to help hard-of-hearing fans better experience
02:35 Coldplay's music during their world tour.
02:38 - My partner, she said,
02:40 "I got you a Christmas present of a subpack."
02:44 She said, "It's like what Phineas Eilish wears on stage
02:48 "when he's with Billie, and it vibrates,
02:50 "so it's useful for someone like Phineas
02:52 "to hear where the one is on the bass drum."
02:55 So the bass drum will literally be like boom, boom.
02:58 - It seems the Fifty Shades of Grey star
03:00 has the stamp of approval all around,
03:03 including from Chris's ex-wife, Gwyneth Paltrow.
03:07 - Oh my God, yes.
03:08 - The Goop founder, who was married to Chris
03:10 from 2003 to 2016, just shared this pic
03:14 holding hands with Dakota after a fan asked in a Q&A
03:18 to see a pic of them together.
03:20 - We're actually very good friends.
03:22 I love her so much.
03:23 She's an adorable, wonderful person.
03:26 - While we love getting all these glimpses
03:28 at Dakota and Chris's life,
03:30 chances are they'll continue to be few and far between
03:34 as the pair prioritizes their privacy.
03:37 - That's really all I want.
03:39 - In 2021, Dakota told LUK, quote,
03:42 "We've been together for quite a while,
03:44 "and we go out sometimes, but we both work so much
03:48 "that it's nice to be at home and be cozy and private."
